Administrative employee with a particular focus on finance for the Children's and Youth Home and the Family House

Are you strong in finance and administration, and do you thrive in having responsibility for the finances and getting the everyday many small and large tasks to hang together?

We are seeking an administrative employee as of 1 December 2026 with a special focus on finance and budgeting for a 37-hour-per-week position. The position is split between the Children’s and Youth Home, where you will be 30 hours per week, and the Family House, where you will be 7 hours per week.

You will play a central role in the financial and administrative operations and become a close sparring partner for the managers. You will be responsible for ongoing budget management and must ensure that there is an up-to-date and clear financial overview that the management can steer by.

You will monitor the budget, consumption and accounting expectations, work with variances and forecasts, and have a solid grip on our financial key figures. You must be able to translate the finances into a clear overview and, together with the managers, communicate and present our numbers when needed.

But the position is not only about finance.

You will also be an important part of the daily administrative operations. Your workday can therefore range from budget follow-up and financial management to shift planning, procurement and receipts, children’s allowance, meeting preparation and other practical administrative tasks. In the Family House you will also have a role with regard to time registration, case lists and capacity management.

We are therefore looking for someone who can take responsibility for the finances and also enjoys making the daily administrative tasks run smoothly.

Your tasks

You will have a broad role with responsibility for both finance, planning and daily administration. Your tasks will include, among others:

• responsibility for budget management, budget follow-up, accounting expectations and financial overview
• follow-up on consumption and preparation and communication of relevant key figures and financial overviews
• act as a liaison to the municipality’s finance function
• development and maintenance of shift plans as well as an overview of staffing and working time
• handling of purchases, receipts, advances, children’s allowances and other administrative tasks
• preparation of meetings, agendas, minutes, materials and presentations
• support for managers and employees in daily administrative operations
• contribute to creating structure and good workflows, as well as follow up on agreements and tasks.

Who are you?

We imagine that you have a relevant administrative education, e.g., a clerical education, and experience with finance and budgeting tasks. You can take responsibility for the finances and at the same time thrive with the many different administrative tasks that come with everyday life.

We emphasize that you

• have a good grasp of finance and can make numbers understandable for others
• work in a structured way and create an overview
• take responsibility and follow up on tasks to the end
• thrive with both fixed tasks and what arises along the way
• cooperate well with both management and staff
• are eager to help build a new workplace.

You will be part of a new Children’s and Youth Home

The Children’s and Youth Home is under development. You will join at a time when many administrative workflows, systems and structures need to be established and developed.

You will become a close partner to the manager and at the same time a visible part of daily operations. You will have an independent area of responsibility and an important function in creating structure, following up and ensuring that both the finances and administration hang together.

Family House

In the Family House you will be attached on average 7 hours per week and contribute to the administrative operations.

We offer

• a central role in the establishment of a new Children’s and Youth Home
• an independent responsibility for ongoing financial and budget management
• a varied position where finance, administration and operations are closely connected
• close collaboration with the management
• the opportunity to help establish good administrative workflows from the start
• a daily life where your work has a great impact on the organization functioning
• collaboration across the Children’s and Youth Home, Family House and relevant municipal functions.
